Some UK universities are sitting on a potential goldmine of gene-based patents which could lead to new medical treatments such as
- A once-a-year gene treatment for haemophiliacs
- A cure for the fungus that kills 1200 people a year in the UK
- Heart and epilepsy drugs which correct electrical faults in nerve cells
Others appear to have no gene patents at all.
